The hotel has a lot of potential and is in desperate need for renovations. All wooden flooring is extremely squeaky in rooms (we had two) and throughout common areas. I think that update alone would enhance the property and guest experience exponentially. Steep hill to walk up, especially with luggage and stroller, so be prepared! I didn't mind and enjoyed the challenge, but other family members did. The breakfast was decent, rooms has amazing views, and were very clean and quiet. Mattress was not comfortable. Overall, overpriced for what you get. I appreciated the classic decor throughout, and music in the lobby.

Amazing experience. You have a mountain view from the balcony. Rooms are spacious with awesome services. Hotel staff is also very helpful and customer oriented. My kids enjoyed the stay. Walking distance from Wengen train station which is also a plus. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

This hotel was so uncomfortable to stay at. There were cobwebs in the room. It was poorly cleaned. The worst part: There was no AC (which is common for the town) but at least have fans to provide for your guests. It’s hot in July, and the rooms are hot without any AC or fan. My kids were sweating in their sleep. I called reception to ask for flat sheets since the comforters were not even close to being necessary and they told me they were out. Ridiculous. The pillows were so flat, it’s like they were hardly there. The breakfast was just okay. There were no tv’s in the room. Rather they had a “tv room” which was a small tv behind the bar in the common area. You’re hosting people around the world and charging top dollar. Have some decency and keep up with the global hotel standards. Overall I am very unhappy about my stay and wish I stayed somewhere else for the money I paid.

We loved Hotel Falken and would definitely stay there again! Wengen is centrally located to many activities (Jungfraujoch, Lauterbrunnen, Trummelbach Falls, Schilthorn, Interlaken) and the town itself is quaint and absolutely gorgeous (there are many restaurants, grocery store, skylift/cable car, tennis courts, swimming pool, park, church, mini-golf, cows). We parked at the Lauterbrunnen train station and it is about a 10 min train ride to get to Wengen (they leave every 30 mins). The hotel is just a short walk from the train station which we found convenient for our entire stay for carrying luggage, catching trains etc- vs being at another hotel further away in the town. The staff was very nice and helpful, especially Alice, who greeted us with drinks, gave us recommendations for restaurants, and also tips on navigating the trains and many activities nearby. The owner brings her sweet dogs to the hotel and my children looked forward to seeing them every day! They were able to accommodate our family of 5 in one room and the kids loved their loft type bedroom! Breakfast was from 7am-10am and they have a table reserved for you with your room number on the table. They do offer dinner 5 nights/week. The views from the room are stunning and it was fun to hear the bells from the cows and sheep when the windows are open. The bedding was comfortable and they give you a bottle of water every day. We loved it and we wished we could've stayed longer!
